Breathe easy: new MRI technique lets heart patients skip Breath-Holds
NCT ID NCT06878768
First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026 · Updated 11 times
Summary
This pilot study tested whether a new MRI technique called GRICS can take clear pictures of the heart while patients breathe normally. Thirty adults with heart disease (ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy) had both standard breath-hold and free-breathing scans. The goal was to see if the new method produces images good enough for doctors to use, potentially making heart MRIs easier for patients who struggle to hold their breath.
